Ot taking turns in 1 game and playing turns in another oneLord Arioch wrote:how do u prove it?
Yeah, if that's happening, it's probably intentional deadbeating. But it's up to you to collect the evidence and file a report -- post links to the relevant games, the times when they missed turns in the games they deadbeat, and the times that they took turns in other games. Like everything else on CC, there are only a handful of volunteers staffing C&A on a part-time basis, and they have no time to go looking for evidence. It's up to players to present it.Wezzn wrote:Ot taking turns in 1 game and playing turns in another oneLord Arioch wrote:how do u prove it?

If you dont play turns in game 1 because you are a sore loser, and are playing turns in game 2, you are a deadbeat. If rl comes up, who can prove?DirtyDishSoap wrote:I've deadbeated out of games because life happens and tends to kick you in the CC's. Also, dependent on your line of work, imo.

I rarely miss, but it does happen. And then there's days when I might have well have missed -- when I come home so tired that I play like a total idiot, and I probably would have been better off to miss.riskllama wrote:pfft...that's a lame excuse, duk - you're a shiftworker, how many turns do u miss? not many, i'd wager. if you're missing turns, you're either an asshole or, are in too many games.
Adjusting your game load takes time, and real life doesn't always give you that luxury. There's been many times when I thought I was going to have a relatively easy week at work, so I joined some extra games, and then suddenly I got extra work and I was struggling.riskllama wrote:you see? no excuse, just adjust your gameload accordingly.
Thanks for the life advice. No shit, Sherlock. I'm in way too many games. I rush through my turns and CC is a chore. Unfortunately there's just too many good tournaments to ignore.riskllama wrote:you are playing too many games, duk. i try to keep my gameload below 60, at all costs - any more than that & i find i "rush" through my turns and CC becomes a chore. thank to f*ck christ i have an excellent sitter...
I simply stated a broader term for the topic "Deadbeating". If someone is dipping out of one game but playing another, then yeah, I'd have a problem. But if someone walled me or PMed me why they deadbeated, IE: "I got ran over by a car because I was playing in traffic with my kid, soz", then I'd say no harm, no foul.Wezzn wrote:If you dont play turns in game 1 because you are a sore loser, and are playing turns in game 2, you are a deadbeat.

The grass is always greener. You can sit, smoke, drink coffee and go to the toilet any time you like. As my mate Bubbles explainsDukasaur wrote:
That's because I work on the highway. I'm out on the road for 12 hours at a time and coming home tired is my norm. But for someone who works in an office with a nominal 8-hour day including 3 hours of coffee breaks, smoke breaks, bathroom breaks, and sneaking-away-to-the-third-floor-to-flirt-with-the-cute-broad-in-payroll breaks, shouldn't be tired at all. And especially if it's one of those offices with uncensored internet, they can even take their turns during their coffee break. So I would expect near-perfect attendance from someone like that.
